Soil Exhibit in Bryson City

out swainsoilThe Swain Soil and Water Conservation District is in the process of creating a mobile, walk-through exhibit focusing on soil resources. Soil resources are often not presented to the same caliber as other natural resources, and are frequently overlooked or abused.

The Swain Soil and Water Conservation District hopes that the Mobile Soil Exhibit will fill a void in soil resources education and will be an effective teaching tool for all ages. The exhibit will be available for use across the western region of the state and will make appearances at The Mountain State Fair, the Regional and State Envirothon, and Conservation Field Days.

At our inception 20 years ago, we chose to be different. Unlike other news organizations, we made the decision to provide in-depth, regional reporting free to anyone who wanted access to it. We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home. If you are able, please support The Smoky Mountain News.
